The 'Goldstone Report' of September 2009 started a critical
debate at the international level. The Report raised serious
allegations of grave violations of international law with regard to
the Israeli attack on Gaza of 27 December 2008 - 18 January 2009,
amounting to possible war crimes and crimes against humanity. The
UN General Assembly and the Human Rights Council, amidst high
political pressure, endorsed the Report s recommendations, calling
for prompt and proper investigations to ensure accountability and
justice for the victims. Given the lack of proper investigations at
the national level, international justice mechanisms are now
needed. Indeed, the ICC opened a preliminary examination of the
situation but difficulties arose because of the uncertain status of
the occupied Palestinian territory. The issue of the existence of a
State of Palestine is extremely actual and still unsolved at the UN
level.
